Soiled – Phonic Grafts

Soiled is Marcus H, originally from Bristol he now inhabits the liminal zone between industrial Teesside and rural North Yorkshire. For me, his albums are psychogeographic explorations of the harsh beauty of steel mills, cooling towers and cracker columns pitched against the red in tooth and claw reality of rural East Cleveland. Phonic Grafts beautifully dances in and around these themes, melding together elements of his West Country origins and industrial electronica with contrasting shades of light and dark pastoral psychedelia.
